Project aim

We want to deliver a leaflet to every household in Copeland introducing their Green Party candidate

About the project

Our candidate in Copeland is Allan Todd. You can see him in the video. He is passionate about fighting austerity, and the people of Copeland are suffering particularly badly under this Government's policies. We nearly have enough money to send a leaflet explaining this (and other policies) to every household in Copeland.

The Green Party doesn't have the same level of financial backing as other parties. The fee to stand as MP is £500 per constituency - apparently this is to deter those who are not serious, but the reality is that it ensures only a certain type of person can stand, and prevents those from poorer backgrounds or without the backing of multimillionaires from getting anywhere. We can afford this from our own fundraising efforts.

With your help we will afford to send everyone a leaflet too. Thank you.
